Large fiber steel crankshafts export, China's breakthrough in tungsten carbide manufacture

Large fiber steel crankshafts exported to Europe symbolizes a breakthrough in tungsten carbide cutter manufacture in China and China’s ability of introducing and digesting foreign technology reaching a new level.

The contract of three large fiber steel crankshafts MAN9L27/38 signed by CSR(China South Locomotive and Rolling Stock Corporation Limited) Ziyang Company and ThyssenKrupp(German) come into effect on July 18. This is the first order that China exports large crankshaft to Europe and the first step to European market, which marking a breakthrough in tungsten carbide cutter production in China.
